WordPress to end support for IE 6

I’ve just been checking out the release notes for the upcoming WordPress 3.2 and it came to my attention that they will no longer be providing support for IE6. Yippeeeee!

It would seem that the argument for dropping support for IE6 is starting to have some real weight behind it. With WordPress following in the footsteps of many other big names over the last 18 months including Google, YouTube and finally Microsoft themselves it looks like the task of convincing clients to apply the method of graceful degradation is going to become a much easier task.
